89'' Godzila R32 Gtr Standard Brake Service!

[danny14]

hey guys my gtr 32 is due for a brake service i have standard bakes all round on my r 32 gtr. pads are pretty worn down im unsure on what pads are in it. car is making close to 500 hp at 4.

are the standard drilled rotors ok to use again can you get them machined? and i am wanting to know what good pads i can put back in the car is a street car mainly might do a little track in the future.

I would ditch the drilled rotors and start off with a fresh set.

Cross Drilled rotors have less surface braking area and slight cracks will appear around the hole areas after many years.

Depends on how worn the rotors are, but if they are very worn, you can't machine them as they will get too thin.

DBA / Project Mu make good replacements for brake and rotor setups.

At the moment I run DBA 4000 rotors with Project Mu B Spec pads.

Quite good on price too.

Drilled rotors can crack, but if they're not cracked now and have plenty of meat left in them you may as well use them again. IIRC the rotors are 32mm wide new and 30mm is the wear limit. I never machine rotors at a pad change unless there's a problem with them.

whats the best pads to use if the discs have heaps of meat left and arnt cracked.

ps they have been working fine just getting low on pads but there is slight groves in discs etc

I use Project Mu B-Spec.

Some also recommend EBC pads.

QFM A1RM

[MrStabby]

Depends on how you drive, and if you do any track days.

If you want a pad that can cope with a track day but not be too much for the street QFM A1RMs are great and cheap. If you're street only, then something milder than and A1RM should have better grip cold, and be kinder to the rotors. I've used EBC greens and they were great, but these days i'd probably try QFM HPX or the Remsas (See trader GSL Rallysport for both - also he can recommend a pad based on your usage).
